My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 434 Master Xu!! I... you!!

This man had a sinister face and sharp eyes.

He was Si Zhongxiao, the most loyal lackey of Emperor Jianhong of the Great Sage Dynasty!
When Zeng Anmin saw him, a sense of absurdity arose in his mind.

Even a hint of "I see" welled up on his face.

I was wondering why Master Xu could so confidently say that a third-rank martial artist could freely enter Shouyang Mountain without arousing suspicion!
It turns out it was Si Zhongxiao!

That’s okay!

Who was Emperor Jianhong's most loyal lackey?
There is no one else but Si Zhongxiao!

He even had very clear memories of this chief eunuch.

Absolutely number one in the inner palace!

But one day you suddenly tell me that Si Zhongxiao was actually a pawn planted by Master Xu long ago by Emperor Jianhong?!

"Don't just stand there, meet me at Shouyang Mountain tonight at 7 PM."

Si Zhongxiao looked at Zeng Anmin indifferently, then pulled Suo Wushi into his arms, and disappeared in a flash.

"Whoo~"

Watching Si Zhongxiao's figure disappear.

A glint of light flashed in Zeng Anmin's eyes.

"It's getting more interesting."

His lips murmured softly.

The most famous third-rank martial artist in the Great Holy Dynasty!
The eunuch who put the most pressure on him when he first came to the capital.

They suddenly became allies?

After the absurd yet real events occurred, Zeng Anmin could only silently accept them.

He knew that what he had to do tonight was to truly risk his life!

"Hopefully after today..."

Zeng Anmin looked up at the east: "The sun will still shine for me tomorrow."

……

The Xuanru Conference continues.

The chubby prince seemed somewhat dazed.

He gently raised his head, his gaze fixed on the seat of Dean Shi, a second-rank sub-sage.

At that moment, Dean Shi was chatting with a student from the academy next to him. He turned around and responded after sensing someone's gaze.

When he realized it was the chubby prince, a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed slightly to him.

"Forehead……"

Even from this distance, Dean Shi could sense me looking at him?

The Crown Prince quickly smiled and nodded to Dean Shi.

The eye contact was fleeting.

The chubby Crown Prince Wang Yuanzhen looked at the little eunuch beside him and asked, "Where is Si Zhongxiao?"

The young eunuch hurriedly and respectfully replied, "Your Highness, the Chief Eunuch has gone to prepare the supplies for tomorrow's imperial palace."

Wang Yuanzhen suddenly realized what was happening.

Palace.

The palace used for travel was actually just a temporary place to stay.

This grand Confucian conference will definitely take more than a day to organize. Although this place is not far from the capital, it is not worth the trouble of traveling back and forth. Therefore, it is most reasonable for the officials and the crown prince to stay here for a few days.

Why weren't these things prepared sooner?

The chubby prince looked somewhat displeased. After all, Si Zhongxiao was his father's close attendant, utterly loyal to his father, but as for him...

Therefore, he naturally felt nothing for Si Zhongxiao, and was even somewhat annoyed by him. He had long wanted to replace Si Zhongxiao with his own personal eunuch.

"What about... Quan Fu?"

The chubby prince looked up and around: "I haven't seen him all day."

He rubbed his aching shoulders and said with dissatisfaction, "You promised to come find me after you've checked the safety of this place."

The young eunuch beside him paused for a moment, then bowed even more respectfully to the chubby little prince:

“Zeng Tidu is extremely busy. Besides maintaining the stability of this mountain, he also has to investigate some martial arts figures, so he is naturally quite busy.”

"Today is only the first day of the conference, and there are too many unfamiliar faces."

"Once Zengti is less busy in the next couple of days, he will definitely come to enjoy the scenery with Your Highness."

"You little eunuch, you're quite sensible."

Hearing the young eunuch's words of advice, Wang Yuanzhen smiled and looked at the eunuch.
"What is your name?"

"Your Highness, this servant's name is Wei Zhongquan."

"Xiao Quanzi... well, from now on you will come with the Crown Prince."

"Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness!"

……

Shouyang Mountain is less than thirty miles from the capital of the Great Holy Dynasty.

This place is the land of the Holy Dynasty's dragon vein.

Legend has it that after Master Xu injected the dragon vein into this mountain, the entire mountain was surrounded by golden light for three days, and the sound of dragon roars never ceased.

Even now, the echoes of the wind sweeping through the valley sound like the roar of a dragon.

This was also Zeng Anmin's first time setting foot on this mountain!
Shouyang Mountain is actually guarded by troops, after all, it is the place where the dragon vein of the Great Holy Dynasty is revived.

Many royal families throughout history have chosen this location for their imperial tombs.

However, these troops were insignificant and their symbolic significance outweighed their actual garrison duty.

So they had no idea that someone had infiltrated the area.

"Da da……"

Zeng Anmin disappeared into the forest from the side of the mountain and slowly made his way to the top.

He stopped halfway through his journey.

Si Zhongxiao was waiting directly in front of him.

"coming."

Si Zhongxiao noticed the commotion, slowly turned around, and looked at Zeng Anmin.

"Let's go?"

Zeng Anmin raised his eyebrows and looked at Si Zhongxiao, saying, "Although I was mentally prepared, I was still surprised to see you tonight."

Si Zhongxiao naturally understood Zeng Anmin's meaning. He smiled faintly and said, "Since there are royal family members who have led the Celestial Master's disciples to betray the Celestial Master."

"It is reasonable for the Grand Master to arrange for me to enter the inner palace."

"Let's not talk about that. How do you plan to approach Wang Dong?"

Zeng Anmin looked at Si Zhongxiao and asked.

“Naturally, we should seek him out openly and honestly.”

Si Zhongxiao tossed Zeng Anmin a piece of clothing: "Change into this."

Uh.

Zeng Anmin's lips twitched slightly as he looked at the clothes Si Zhongxiao handed him.

This is a eunuch's robe.

“Wang Dong is extremely arrogant. He is currently meditating in Shouyang Mountain by himself.”

"You disguise yourself as a eunuch and follow me to deliver supplies to Emperor Jianhong in his name."

"Detonate the Locking Stone when the miscellaneous master comes within seven steps of him."

"What about the rest?" Zeng Anmin blinked and asked Si Zhongxiao.

"The rest is up to you to watch me chop off that old dog's head," Si Zhongxiao said expressionlessly.

"it is good."

It seems that Master Xu did not tell Si Zhongxiao that he also possessed the combat strength of a third-rank martial artist.

This was likely to prevent Si Zhongxiao from having any hope for him, so that he could concentrate on fighting Wang Dong.

"Let's not delay, let's go."

As they spoke, Zeng Anmin changed his clothes. He tightened his collar and cast a faint, sharp glint in his eyes.

…………

Shouyang Mountain, a flat hill.

A gentle breeze stirred, igniting the chirping of insects.

Wang Dong, who was sitting cross-legged on a huge rock, suddenly opened his eyes and looked ahead.

"who?"

His voice contained a hint of thunderous roar!
"boom!!"

As his voice rang out, the surrounding branches and dust suddenly swirled up.

An immense pressure emanated from him and pressed forward.

"Please, Ancestor, cease your supernatural powers!!!"

Si Zhongxiao's voice carried a hint of fear as he respectfully and laboriously emerged from the mountains and forests.

"Dog?"

After seeing Si Zhongxiao's figure.

Wang Dong's eyes narrowed slightly, and his guard gradually lowered.
What brings you here?

"His Majesty summoned this old servant to come here to see you and to prepare some supplies for you."

Si Zhongxiao stood there and waved gently.

Zeng Anmin, bent over and carrying some food in his hands, slowly appeared from behind Si Zhongxiao.

Wang Dong nodded expressionlessly, pointing to the area below the large rock.

"Come on up here, just leave it aside."

"Oh, my ancestor, please stop your supernatural powers, otherwise this old servant would not dare to move forward!"

Si Zhongxiao's face was full of bitter smiles as he pounded his shoulder:

"Your imposing aura is making this old servant tremble with fear!"

"Smooth-talking!" Although Wang Dong had never been particularly fond of Si Zhongxiao, he knew that Si Zhongxiao was Emperor Jianhong's close advisor and trustworthy. He casually withdrew his imposing aura and glanced at Si Zhongxiao, saying:
Just the two of you?

Si Zhongxiao's expression immediately turned solemn, and he bowed to Wang Dong, saying:
"His Majesty specifically instructed that your whereabouts must be kept secret and that no one should know about them."

"Heh." Wang Dong chuckled lightly. "He is indeed cautious enough. Although the world is vast, no one has yet been born who can pose a threat to me."

"Then this servant will go." Si Zhongxiao slowly turned around and took the supplies from Zeng Anmin's hands.

During this time, his eyes were fixed on Zeng Anmin.

Zeng Anmin's eyes flickered almost imperceptibly.

Ok.

it is more than words

Then, Si Zhongxiao respectfully walked towards Wang Dong's direction.

"Ah."

Wang Dong didn't care at all; he even closed his eyes again.

"Da da da……"

Si Zhongxiao was a third-rank martial artist who had perfect control over everything about himself.

He slowly approached Wang Dong.

With each step he took, he got closer and closer to Wang Dong's figure.

Zeng Anmin held his breath.

He dared not make any sudden movements at this moment, only daring to glance at the distance between Si Zhongxiao and Wang Dong out of the corner of his eye.

Ten steps, nine steps...

Si Zhongxiao is getting closer and closer to Wang Dong!
It'll be here soon!!
Almost there!!

Zeng Anmin slowly mobilized the righteous energy within his body.

"Why are you concealing your aura in front of me?"

Wang Dong seemed to sense something, opened his eyes, and looked at Si Zhongxiao expressionlessly.

Si Zhongxiao's body trembled slightly.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly, putting on a smile: "This old servant was just afraid of offending the ancestor, afraid that the ancestor would think that this servant was disrespectful."

"A mere ant of the third rank has quite a few cunning schemes."

Wang Dong smiled faintly, then pointed to Si Zhongxiao's feet:

"Just leave the money there and you can go back."

……

silence.

Zeng Anmin swore that when Wang Dong said those words, the entire scene fell silent for a second.

Wang Dong's sudden words were something neither Si Zhongxiao nor Zeng Anmin had expected!
"This……"

A troubled look appeared on Si Zhongxiao's face. He stood there, his mind blank for a moment.

He is now nine steps away from Wang Dong.

It was two steps short of the predetermined seven steps.

It is precisely these two steps that greatly diminish the effectiveness of the weapon-locking stone!

The weapon-locking stone must not be detonated at this distance!

This is what Zeng Anmin was thinking.

But Si Zhongxiao absolutely cannot make any moves at this time!!
Before him stood the strongest man in the Great Holy Dynasty!

Let alone two steps, he wouldn't dare rush forward even if it were just one step!

Everyone knows one thing: if Si Zhongxiao dares to make any move at this moment, the Second-Rank Ancestor Wang Dong will definitely be able to react and retaliate!
How to do? !

Both Zeng Anmin and Si Zhongxiao were momentarily stunned into a blank mind during that brief period of time!

Fortunately, Si Zhongxiao wasn't a bad teammate.

It only took him a moment for his mind to complete its own spin.

"Pfft!"

He knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

Uh.

Upon seeing this, Wang Dong's expression froze for a moment, then he frowned:
"What are you doing?"

"Grandmaster...please save this old servant!!"

Si Zhongxiao's voice trembled:

"When I was practicing my martial arts the other day, my breath seemed to have become blocked... My groin... a few acupoints in my groin area are a bit blocked..."

……

Zeng Anmin pursed his lips, his expression somewhat complicated.

Si Zhongxiao was a eunuch.

But he was also a famous third-rank military officer in the Holy Dynasty!

In the martial arts world, he is absolutely a figure who can be called an emperor or ancestor!
Today, in order to get close to Wang Dong, she even abandoned her self-respect.

……

A half-smile appeared on Wang Dong's face as he looked at Si Zhongxiao and said mockingly:
"I told you long ago that from the day you stopped being a man, it was destined that your path in martial arts would not be long."

"The third rank is already your limit."

"If you insist on ignoring this, you'll only bring trouble upon yourself. See, this trouble has already come to pass."

Si Zhongxiao looked up with a bitter expression:

"This servant disobeyed the master's words; this servant was blinded by greed. This servant will never dare to do it again!!"

"For the sake of my loyalty over the years, please, Your Majesty, have mercy and save me!!!"

As he spoke, his eyes reddened, and he sobbed, "This servant is afraid of death!!"

……

Wang Dong's lips twitched.

Si Zhongxiao's performance was truly ridiculous.

He smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, alright, come on forward."

"I'll see just how strong your martial arts aura really is."

"Really!!" Si Zhongxiao's body trembled violently, then he looked up with a face full of surprise!
"Thank you for your mercy, Ancestor! May you be well and live long!!"

“Bang bang bang!!!”

After kowtowing three times, Si Zhongxiao stood up eagerly and walked towards Wang Dong.

Nine steps.

eight steps.

Seven steps!!!

Upon seeing this, a cold glint flashed in Zeng Anmin's eyes!

It's done!

We definitely can't let Si Suixiao's wrist be grabbed by Wang Dong.

With a slight thought, he began to mobilize the righteous energy within his body.

Finally, when Si Zhongxiao and Wang Dong were four steps apart...

"Bang!!"

A thunderous sound suddenly exploded from Si Zhongxiao's chest!
"What was that sound?!"

Wang Dong frowned sharply, his expression becoming extremely solemn as he looked at Si Zhongxiao's chest.

At this moment, Si Zhongxiao froze on the spot after the Lockstone exploded.

A transparent wave rapidly spread outwards!

"Boom!!!"

Although Wang Dong was only a second-rank official, the wave arrived in the blink of an eye, and he had no time to react before being enveloped by the transparent wave.

"Oh!"

Wang Dong felt his heart clench suddenly, and the next moment, his body began to tense up.

The martial arts aura became extremely blocked.

"Si Zhongxiao!!!"

Wang Dong's expression suddenly changed, and he raised his voice.

An unparalleled rage erupted from his chest:

"You deserve to die!!!"

By now.

If he still doesn't realize it, then he's lived all these years in vain!

Si Zhongxiao stood motionless in place, like a statue.

He was also a martial artist; he was the biggest victim of the Locking Stone!

"die!!"

Wang Dong glared at Si Zhongxiao with hatred, his eyes filled with cold light.

"Om!!"

A short knife appeared out of thin air and sliced ​​off Si Zhongxiao's head!

"Pfft!!" Blood splattered!

"Thud!!" His head hit the ground!
Si Zhongxiao is dead!!
Upon seeing this, Zeng Anmin felt a chill run down his spine!

Someone surnamed Xu!!

You fucking tricked me!
It turns out that from the very beginning, Master Xu never intended for Si Zhongxiao to live!
From beginning to end, Xu Tianshi's goal was to have himself fight Wang Dong, who was under the influence of the Locking Stone!
"Humph!!"

Si Zhongxiao's body lay on the ground.

Wang Dong's cold gaze fell directly on Zeng Anmin.

There is no language.

Yes, but Wang Dong raised the short knife in his hand, which gleamed with a cold light!
